Good priests never look for awards and, perversely enough, do not receive many.

Good priests never look for awards and, perversely enough, do not receive many. Nor do the monastics - pious monks and nuns - who labored selflessly and nearly anonymously all their lives for the good of the Church. These devout servants of Christ usually only get into the papers when their obituaries are printed. However, there are greater rewards than earthly awards, and our true recompense will be entry into God's eternal Kingdom!
